INTRUSIVE LULLABIES starts out this album with quite a mellow, hypnotizing sound with a sweet whisper in his voice. I find his sound quite intriguing to many others I heard throughout the years.
A MAD MAN IN A BOX has amazing lyrics as the song has a sweet , laid back rhythm that is bound to bring a smile to your face. THE GREAT SISYPHUS has a great rhythm which great as his vocals are quite a standout, too. You cannot help yourself but to be drawn into him and his music.
UNTITLED is pure sweetness from the very first note. This song is very laid back and if you close your eyes, you will be take you to la la land. I want to give a BIG SHOUT to Black Guy Fawkes for being in touch and being very kind to me.
